The All American Rejects - I Wanna



Genra Characteristics?
I this genre which is rock quite alot of the songs will consist of performnce based video's however in this video there is also a story based with a perfromance based video.

The Relationship between music and visual?
The music video links very well with the video the song is about the wanting of a partner. Then on the video you see to people obviously wanting to see each other then at the end of the video they are with each other. It is a very happy video. So the music and the video do link very well.

Are there close-ups of the artist star image motif?
There are certain images at the start of the video is a image of the symbol for the band then through out the music video there is lots of images of and clips of the band performing the song.

Is there any references to the notion of looking?
There is quite alot of scenes through out the whole video where the band look at the camera mainly because it is a perfromance video which means the lead singer is really most of the time singing to the camera.

Are there any intertextual references?
There is no references that automatically jump out at me however there is lots of television programs in which sexual scenes are shown which i suppose could link to this video.
